Welcome Message from the Congress Chairs

Advances in computers, information and networks are bringing a digital cyber world to our daily lives. Numerous digital things or cyber entities are generated and will reside in the cyber world. Meanwhile, countless real things in the conventional physical, social and mental worlds will possess cyber mappings or cyber components, to have a cyber existence in cyber world. Cyberization is an emerging trend forming the new cyber world and reforming conventional worlds towards cyber- enabled hyper worlds. Cybermatics is to build systematic knowledge about new phenomena, behaviours, properties and practices in the cyberspace, cyberization and cyber-enabled hyper worlds. Cybermatics is characterized by not only catching up with the human intelligence (intelligent sensing, decision making, control, etc.), but also learn from the nature-inspired attributes (dynamics, self-adaptability, energy saving, etc.). The IEEE Cybermatics Congress originated from the 2013 World Cybermatics Congress (Beijing, China). Cybermatics 2020 in Rhodes Island is the continuation after the success of Cybermatics 2019 in Atlanta, Cybermatics 2018 in Halifax, Cybermatics 2017 in Exeter, Cybermatics 2016 in Chengdu, Cybermatics 2015 in Sydney, and Cybermatics 2014 in Taipei. IEEE Cybermatics 2020 aims to provide a high-profile platform for researchers and engineers to exchange and explore state- of-art innovations in cyber technology and their applications in physical, social and mental worlds. The congress consists of the following 5 co-located conferences:  The 3nd IEEE International Conference on Blockchain (Blockchain 2020)  The 6th IEEE International Conference on Smart Data (SmartData 2020)  The 13th IEEE International Conference on Cyber, Physical and Social Computing (CPSCom 2020)  The 13th IEEE International Conference on Internet of Things (iThings 2020)  The 16th IEEE International Conference on Green Computing and Communications (GreenCom 2020) An international conference can be organized by supports and great voluntary efforts of many people and organizations. Our main responsibility is to coordinate various tasks with other willing and talented volunteers. We would like to thank all general chairs of the above 5 conferences for their successful organization and all program chairs for making the excellent four-day technical program. We also would like to express our appreciation for the excellent local team for their wonderful local arrangement and the detailed registration work. We also would like to take the opportunity to thank all the members of the organizing committee, the publicity chairs and technical program committee as well as all authors and reviewers who contributed to the conferences. We deeply appreciate the distinguished congress keynote speakers for sharing with us their latest research advances. Last but the least, the support from IEEE, IEEE Computer Society, IEEE System, Man and Cybernetics Society, IEEE CS Technical Committee on Scalable Computing (TCSC) and IEEE SMC Technical Committee on Cybermatics is highly appreciated.

Summary: Blockchains has found numerous applications in Fintech, Supply chains, and contracts because it is an ideal distributed consensus where all nodes agree on the validity of transactions in a block without needing a central trusted party. The consensus is binary - agree or disagree - True or False. In this era of big data, we need to move blockchains beyond data storage to provide knowledge. In the real world, there are many situations in which various participants may not fully agree, and their opinions may be probabilistic, leading to probabilistic agreements. In this talk, Prof. Jain will present recent extensions using AI that allow blockchains to be used for group decisions that may not be binary. These extensions enable blockchains to be used for group decision making and risk management when the group sizes are large, and group members may want to remain anonymous. In particular, Prof. Jain will describe numerous use cases of this idea. Such situations frequently arise in network security and risky investments.

Summary: The digital transformation of our economy moves at the speed of trust. When we make a contactless payment or access government services online, we trust that the underlying transaction system protects our property, security, and privacy - there are safeguards in place. These safeguards, in the form of technological tools and government regulations, are increasingly under pressure. So, how can we harness the benefits of digital transformation and new technologies, while preserving security and trust? In my view, a long-term R&D effort in blockchain is fundamentally important. We need to collaborate with, and drive immediate outcomes for, business, government, and the community. In this talk, I will share my experience on the blockchain technologies that build and preserve trust in the digital transactions that underpin our economy and society. Effectiveness, efficiency, security, and privacy aspects of the blockchain architecture, systems, components, and mechanisms will be discussed.

Summary: Data are omnipresent. We advocate that to efficiently transform data to knowledge to be used next in a slew of applications in system modeling, decision making, control, and classification, they need to be dealt with at a certain level of abstraction. This, in turn, gives rise to interpretable concepts. Information granules offer a conceptual and algorithmic setting where the data can be conceptualized in a sound and efficient manner. The level of abstraction itself is implied by the nature of the problem under discussion.

We demonstrate that interpretability comes hand in hand with several key requirements including a level of abstraction of the findings, their stability and efficient ways used to accommodate domain knowledge usually being associated with logic- driven blueprint of data. We offer a formal formulation of the transformation problem, propose some performance indexes of information granules and show interrelationships among the requirements identified above.

As clustering has been one among central conceptual pursuits of data analytics, we position a general discussion in a close association with clusters sought as information granules and their interpretation. The general scheme composed of phases: data—clusters—information granules-linguistic summarization is discussed vis-à-vis increasing levels of abstraction arising in the consecutive steps of the scheme. We move beyond data-focused clustering mechanisms by bringing mechanisms of knowledge-oriented clustering where data intensive algorithms are seamlessly combined with crucial pieces of domain knowledge. A new class of reference-driven clustering algorithms is developed in which key results are expressed and quantified in terms of semantically sound and user-supplied landmarks. We carefully investigate generative and discriminative aspects of information granules supporting their further usage in the formation of granular constructs.

Summary:

The introduction of IoT in healthcare has led to many advancements and added new dimensions to the traditional healthcare systems. The interactions between patients and doctors have moved beyond physical visits with the integration of IoT in the healthcare domain. Digital storage of medical data, remote health monitoring, and historical data analysis are some of the significant developments that have been accomplished in the area of healthcare. Wearable devices have played a vital role and have proved to be a game-changer in embedding IoT in healthcare. In the present scenario, wearables have witnessed growing popularity and have become a part of people's lifestyles. Wearables have enabled continuous monitoring of physiological parameters, both locally and remotely. Monitoring the elderly, children, and patients with chronic illnesses have especially benefitted with the availability of wearables. In addition to this, more complex systems for the diagnosis of diseases provide better insights into the patient's condition, which helps in early detection, faster response time, and targeted treatment. IoT-enabled healthcare connects patients from less accessible rural areas to remote healthcare professionals.

The 2020 IEEE Cybermatics Congress IEEE iThings/GreenCom/CPSCom/SmartData/Blockchain-2020

Keynote: A New Direction for Real-time Optimization in Wireless Networks Tom Hou, Virginia Tech, USA. About the Keynote Speaker

Tom Hou is the Bradley Distinguished Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Virginia Tech, USA. He received his Ph.D. degree from NYU Tandon School of Engineering in 1998. His current research has been focused on studying and developing solutions to complex science and engineering problems arising from wireless and mobile networks. Over the years, he and his research team have been studying performance bottlenecks in different network systems and have developed innovative solutions to circumvent these bottlenecks and improve performance envelops. He and his team have successfully developed some powerful optimization techniques to advance throughput, delay, and energy performance limits across the layers of network protocol stack. Currently, he is leading his team to address real-time (on the scale of sub- millisecond or less) optimal solutions for next generation communications networks (e.g., 5G) and CPS/IoT systems. He is also interested in wireless security and privacy. He has published extensively in IEEE and ACM transactions/journals and top-tier IEEE/ACM conferences. He received eight best paper awards from IEEE and ACM. He is a co-editor of a graduate textbook entitled Cognitive Radio Communications and Networks: Principles and Practices (Academic Press/Elsevier, 2010). This book was listed as one of the Best Readings on Cognitive Radio by IEEE Communications Society. His second graduate textbook was entitled Applied Optimization Methods for Wireless Networks (Cambridge University Press in May 2014). This book was the first of its kind in terms of offering a comprehensive toolbox to solve complex optimization problems in wireless networks. He was named an IEEE Fellow in 2014 for "contributions to modeling and optimization of wireless networks"

In addition to his research activities, Prof. Hou has made substantial contributions to his professional society and research community. He was Steering Committee Chair of the IEEE INFOCOM conference (2013-2019), the highest ranked conference on computer networking per Google Scholar. He was Chair of IEEE Communications Society GLOBECOM/ICC Technical Committee (GITC) during 2016-2017. He was an elected member of the IEEE Communications Society Board of Governors (2016-2018). He is/was on the editorial boards of 12 journals and guest edited 7 journal special issues. Summary: A holy grail in optimization is to solve large-scale complex optimization problem (e.g., mixed integer nonlinear program (MINLP)) in real time. Such type of optimization problems is very common in wireless networks, particularly in resource allocation. Traditional, optimal (or near-optimal) solutions to these problems would take prohibitive amount of time and cannot be used as practical solutions in the field to meet real-time requirement. At best, these solutions can only be used as benchmarks to measure the performance of fast heuristics, whose performance may either be severely compromised or can hardly offer any performance guarantee. Recently, in our research on designing a proportional-fair (PF) scheduler for 5G NR, we found that the state-of-the-art GPU can be exploited to offer near-optimal solution to complex optimization problems in real time (e.g., 100 µs time scale). The key ideas in our solution design include (i) decomposing a large-scale complex optimization problem into a massive number of small and independent sub-problems; (ii) selecting a subset of sub-problems from the most promising search space through intensification and random sampling; and (iii) fitting the selected subset of problems into GPU processing cores for very simple computation. In this talk, I will share our experience in this research and show the design of GPF – a GPU-based proportional fair (PF) scheduler that can meet the ∼100 µs time requirement. By implementing our proposed GPF on an off-the-shelf NVIDIA Tesla V100 GPU, we show that GPF is able to achieve near- optimal performance under 100 µs. Our experience demonstrates that a GPU-based solution has the potential to address the grand challenge of solving complex optimization problems in wireless networks in real time.
